Page 106: Setting The Release Force
Overload safety devices 13.2.2 Setting the release force Different operating pressures can be set using the hydraulic overload safety de- vice: choose a low operating pressure for shallow and light soil conditions and a higher operating pressure for heavy soil conditions. There is a shut-off valve (1) underneath the pressure gauge (2). - Page 107 Overload safety devices To reduce the pressure: − Set the spool valve for the wheel to P; the wheel (3) is lowered. − Open the shut-off valve (1). The display on the pres- sure gauge (2) shows the final pressure as soon as the wheel has been low- ered.
- Page 108 Overload safety devices After connecting the adjusting valve unit (1) to a spool valve on the tractor, the sys- tem is ready to operate with the factory set maximum and minimum operating pres- sure. If necessary, these operating pres- sures can be individually adjusted using the dials (2) and (3) and read at the pres- sure gauge (4): •...

Page 110: Depressurising The Hydraulic System
Overload safety devices 13.2.3 Depressurising the hydraulic system Always depressurise the hydraulic system before performing maintenance or re- pair work, for instance. To do so, pressure must be released via the spool valve of the depth wheel as follows. Risk of injury due to incorrectly performed maintenance work DANGER Incorrect maintenance and repair work jeopardise operational safety. - Page 111 Overload safety devices Equipment without traction increase device − Set the spool valve to P. o The depth wheel is raised. Set the chassis to the lowest working depth to ensure the plough bodies with overload safety device have sufficient clearance to the ground and can be low- ered after releasing the pressure.
- Page 112 Overload safety devices Equipment with traction increase device: − Release pressure in the traction in- crease device as follows via the spool valve of the depth wheel: − The shut-off valve (1) is open. − Set the spool valve for the depth wheel to P and keep hold of it until the pres- sure gauge indicator (2) drops to 0 bar.
- Page 113 Overload safety devices − Set the spool valve to T and keep hold of it until the pressure gauge indicator (5) drops to 0 bar. o The depth wheel is lowered. − Open the shut-off valve (4) for overload safety device o The overload safety device is depressurised.
- Page 114 Overload safety devices Equipment with comfort valve (4) − Set the spool valve to P. o The depth wheel is raised. Set the chassis to the lowest working depth to ensure the plough bodies with overload safety device have sufficient clearance to the ground and can be low- ered after releasing the pressure.
